On the Eastern Front... The forces of Soviet West Front (Pavlov), principally deployed in the Bialystok salient and containing forces of the Soviet 3rd Army (Kuznetsov) southwest of Grodno and 10th Army (Golubev) west of Bialystok as well as 4th Army (Korobkov) to the south of the salient, are threatened by a double envelopment by the infantry of the German 9th and 4th Armies (of Army Group Center) marching from the north and south. In response, Pavlov orders all front and army reserves forward, west of Minsk. In the evening, German 47th Panzer Corps (part of Panzer Group 2) cuts the main route from Bialystok to the east, between Wolkowysk and Slonim, isolating the Soviet 3rd and 10th Armies in the Bialystok salient.  

In Stockholm... The Swedish government announces that it will allow the Germans to move forces up to one-division strong through Sweden from Norway to Finland.
